The book provides a detailed account of the Saturday Club, a literary and social club that was established in Boston in 1855 and became a hub for intellectuals, writers, and artists in the United States. The book covers the early years of the club, from its inception to 1870, and includes anecdotes, stories, and personal recollections of the members who attended the club's meetings. Emerson describes the club's founding members, which included his father, as well as other notable figures such as Oliver Wendell Holmes Sr., Henry Wadsworth Longfellow, and James Russell Lowell. The book also delves into the various topics that were discussed at the club's meetings, including literature, philosophy, politics, and science. Emerson provides insights into the debates and discussions that took place, as well as the friendships and rivalries that developed among the members. Overall, The Early Years of the Saturday Club 1855 to 1870 is a fascinating account of an important cultural institution in American history.
